So how come i am the only person facing this problem? I don't see any switch in install.bat that would avoid this check. Even Windows OS disregards readonly flag (and uses it for storing some other flag, which is even crazier). Why does the install procedure look for it?

I would appreciate if anyone could suggest how to circumvent this issue.
